Beijing time is March 11, NBA regular season, the Warriors away 113-102 away to the Nuggets. In this game, Curry was in excellent form, scoring 34 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists. Poole on the bench also had 21 points, five rebounds and seven assists, with Cumminga and Klay each scoring 18 points.
The Only One Man in the Warriors' Squad was a big disappointment, and that was Wiggins. In this game, Wiggins played 33 minutes and 55 seconds, shooting 3 of 11, 1 of 7 from three-point range and 0 of 3 from the free throw line, and had only 7 points, 4 boards and 5 assists. Wiggins' performance is highly inconsistent with his status as an All-Star starter.
In fact, this is the first time Wiggins has pulled his crotch during a game. According to statistics, since February, Wiggins has averaged 13.9 points per game, shooting 41.5%, shooting 37.1% from three-point range and shooting 39.1% from the free throws. That's a far lower than his season average of 17.4 points.
In the first half of the season, many Warriors fans praised Wiggins, believing that he had ushered in his peak season in the Warriors. But from the current point of view, Wiggins has experienced a data decline in the Warriors for 3 consecutive years. In the 19-20 season, when Wiggins first joined the Warriors, he averaged 19.4 points per game. Last season, Wiggins scored 18.6 points. By this season, Wiggins' average of points per game had slipped to 17.4 points per game.
Wiggins, though an All-Star and even a starter, didn't deserve the honor. It is worth mentioning that Wiggins' annual salary this season is as high as $31.58 million, ranking 25th in the league. Obviously, Wiggins belongs to the category of high salary and low energy, and he is not worth the price at all. Next season, Wiggins' salary will rise to $33.33 million.
Before the playoffs, Wiggins was suddenly in a slump. If he can't get back in shape in the playoffs, the Warriors should seek to trade him in the offseason! In the small forward position, the Warriors are not short of people. This year's No. 7 show Kuminga is a material that can be made. Trading Wiggins and helping Kuminga is more conducive to the Warriors' championship campaign!
